Tiger Eyes

This card is the next in my weeklong celebration of my mom. I'm hosting the weekly challenge over at One Stop Craft Challenge and gave everyone a photo inspiration. My mom was a fanatic for Monarch butterflies; one of her other animal loves was the tiger. I had this image printed out for awhile and wasn't sure that I could do it justice. Then, I just dove in with my Copics and blended, blended, blended, until I had what I thought looked like a tiger. I know if mom could see it, she'd be thrilled. I hope you enjoy it as well, and will hop over to OSC and join us. There are 2 photos for you to find inspiration. Here's a snapshot of the cards I made from the pics. I still have 2 more cards to feature, so pop on back over the next few days.

Photo Inspiration ~ One Stop Crafts Challenge #96I can't believe mom and I never chatted about how the Monarch's wings have similar pattern and color to a tiger's stripes. The wings gave me the inspiration for my card.

I Love 2 Shop at PriscillaStyles Store

Lots of fun at the CDAC!

My SplitCoastStampers Gallery

I was the kid who would spend hours lost in coloring books and playing with glue and glitter. It helped that my mom was a Kindergarten teacher and my crafty grandma lived across the shelter belt. I love crafting and my ultimate dream is to find a job where I can craft full time. My hubby and SEVEN fur babies support me and I know God will take care of the rest. For now I LOVE to play in my studio and hope you are inspired by my creations. THANKS for stopping!
